Johnnie looks back on 70s Eurovision, plus he's edging closer to that 500th Jukebox entry!

England famously gave Abba 'nil points' in 1974 for what turned out to be their classic winner, Waterloo. But what about the rest of the 70s?
Expect a 70s Eurovision tune or two plus you can let Johnnie know your Eurovision memories or requests now - send your emails to walker@bbc.co.uk.

Also - he's edging ever-closer to that magic 500th Jukebox entry, chosen by one of his listeners... this week it's 496.

We can't forget his BTO - Better Than (the) Original. Have you got a 70s cover version which you prefer to the original? If so, let him know!
